BA BW from Colchester County? Will wonders never cease. Medium amber and it has some haze. There is not much head. Sweet, with a moderate bitterness. Light caramel, with a toffee note. Nice balance. Tasty.

Bottle - Sweet Caramel and light woody barrel notes. Cloudy copper with a decent beige head. Sweet caramel and light barrel with a bitter finish. A bit thin and not a lot of pleasant balance. Could maybe use some age.

Bottle - Dark chocolate and potent rum barrel notes. Jet brown with a decent beige head. Dark chocolate and nice sweet toffee notes. Rum and booze follows in the finish. Bold but nice. IPA notes are gone, but that is OK.

Medium brown. Head fizzes up then falls flat...ok shouldn't do that. The aroma is a bit of a mess, definitely some rum and a little bit of chocolate. Nice rummy taste, light chocolate, has an interesting bitterness that probably clashes with the rum. I like the rum character, but the bitterness is quite clashy.

Nothing complex, and no barrel evidnece, but it's a solid and reasonable beer.

Dark color, almost black. Dark malts, molasses, some butter, booze; also, pecans.
Good beer, but chaotic, not fully convincing.

650 mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma has butter, rum, and light toasted malt. Flavour is a trainwreck, with butter, rum, and light toasted malt. Subdued hops, with a buttery rummy finish. Poor.
